What size ray can I get?
Dear experts, I want to get rays all these years..
But I cannot feed everyday. I travel a lot and 3 to 4 days no feeding is very normal in my comm tank. I know young rays must be fed daily. . How about bigger rays? And how big? 8 inch? 10 inch? Can these rays go on healthy without food for ~4 days? |

That's why I ask bro..
As I read from forums . Small ray must feed daily. Bigger ones are ok. That's where I ask how big is big enough to skip feeding for 4 days to 1 week |

Not advisable of you travel a lot and can only feed once every three to four days. Even as adults you still need to feed.
Last time when I kept tiger stingray if one day never feed I could see the back sunken down already. |

For ray keeping, I fed them twice a day... Rays cannot go long without... My suggestion is not to get rays if you are travellimg alot and feeding only once in a few days... Or maybe get your family member to help in feeding...

if your ray is healthy,water is clean
baby ray that just absorb their egg sag from 3.5''-5'',all minimum can last at least 5 days onwards without harm bigger ray can last much longer,a full adults eg 20'' ray can last easily 3 wks lah the real kill is when hv food,they don't want to eat ok |
